Young book fans at Wincle Primary School have been shown how to to help run its new-look library.

Year Six pupils have been trained as librarians for the refurbished library, helping children check out books to share with their families at home.

The library is designed for the new English curriculum and to encourage a love of reading.

Sarah Smith, Key Stage Two teacher, said: “The librarians have worked hard on their training and are enjoying taking the lead and promoting reading. The curriculum aims to ensure pupils develop the habit of reading widely, for pleasure and information.”

The new library comes as the school counts down to its 150th anniversary next year.
